Got back my ‘proof’ copy of The One Who Got Away/Drifting Down the Lazy River today, opened it up to great excitement… Then saw the first typo. And the second. And third. And the page numbers are *all* on the right side (instead of r/l/r/l) And I’m still not quite sure if the ‘gutter’ is in the center or the edge of the paper. And… Well, that’s about it, really. I’m sure JK Rowling thought much the same when she unpacked her first copy of Harry Potter (only with far less money involved

Ordered my proof copy to see just how my formatting looks on The One Who Got Away/Drifting Down the Lazy River. So in about 2 weeks, I'll know roughly where I stand and what I need to go back and fix in the Word primary document. (and I fixed *two* typos while making this last pass.) So we're getting there. If you're interested, the Lulu final file I submitted is here on my Google Drive. I managed

In honor of this day, I got the wife a small box of chocolates, I’m getting you some shameless self-promoting story plugs, and I got myself some needed time working on cleaning up my older stories. Oh, and Iisaw put together a cover for my Bronycon Bookstore double-story entry, which I’m listing next:

Well, to tell that story, is to tell another one.

I can’t remember who I was chatting with (either Ghost or Bad Horse, I believe) when I brought up the concept of three sons inheriting a barony, where one got everything to the east side of the river, the other got everything to the west side of the river, and the third one got smart and took the river, which was the most valuable.

And then Ghost or Bad Horse said “And it’s full of seaponies, right?”

First, in celebration of How Many Princesses Does It Take getting 1,000 likes, I’m punishing rewarding the readership with another chapter titled Power Failure. God only knows what I’ll do if it ever hits 2,000 likes. (Oh, and if anybody can tell me how to fix why Google Docs has decided that everything I paste out of a Gdoc needs to be double-spaced now...)

Getting things all set up for my trip to Everfree Northwest next week while working on my Bronycon Bookstore books, and I got to wondering. Will anybody be at EFNW who can’t make it to Bronycon, who also wants a copy of one of the three books (thanks to Iisaw) that I’ve got set up? I think I can wedge 12 copies into my airline luggage and still have underwear space, which would be about 4 copies of each. (cont.)

Edited: I'm done transferring the story to Fimfiction right now, and after due consideration of the comments, I've decided to publish on Monday when the site traffic picks back up. So, 10:00 am CST, on 2/6, the twenty chapters start going up, one per day. Maybe two on Monday if I'm feeling generous, since Chapter 1 is a little short.

Just to let you know, there will be a slightly more naughty sequel to Daring Do and the Dance which I am sketching out and is currently in the Really Rough Draft stage. A sneak peek will show up in Drifting Down the Lazy River, the sequel to The One Who Got Away (seaponies and shipping, oh my). (below the break)
